According to testimony by Arkansas State Police Sgt. Stacie Rhodes, police were dispatched to Brown Hall at Arkansas Tech University Tuesday on a report of two men entering a dorm room and demanding money.

According to Rhodes, two males, believed to be Whitcomb and Jones, entered the dorm room donning ski masks and demanded money from the two occupants. Jones was allegedly carrying a semi-automatic pistol, with which he struck one of the victims in the head, causing a laceration. After the fight ensued, Jones and Whitcomb allegedly fled the scene.

After hearing reports from witnesses, Buyard, an ATU student, was arrested in his dorm room; Jones was seen getting into a vehicle at ATU and was afterward arrested; and Whitcomb was arrested from his residence in Atkins.

According to Rhodes, all three admitted to being in the area and having some level of involvement in the incident.

Circuit Judge Don Bourne ordered the three not to enter ATU and if Buyard wants to return to the school, he must receive written permission from the dean of students or the university president.

According to a Russellville Police Department report, an officer pulled Hughes over on North Arkansas Avenue after Hughes failed to dim his lights when the officer, traveling southbound, passed him. According to the report, Hughes seemed nervous and upon searching the vehicle, the officer allegedly found a scale, two bags of marijuana and two plastic bags and a container containing methamphetamine.
